Everyone tells everyone they know what the RIAA is doing and asks them to pass the information on in the same way.... Public ignorance allows the ghouls to keep profiting.
I've never heard of the guy before so thought I'd google him. I was watching; noticed a pattern and hoped it might repeat. Then, the gods smiled upon me at 00:32 - *Awesome*
but rather things like our collective genomes losing resistance to things that are supposed to have disappeared from our ecosystems.

Companies can front-load; i.e. put 30% of their effort/resources into the demo, even though it's only 5% the length of the game...
If each game implemented some common api allowing part of a game to be randomly selected and packaged-up into a demo, such that different people get to play different parts, there'd be less scope for gaming the system.

The GP is saying that obama is intelligent. I'm accepting that ok, maybe he's intelligent and competent but that those two facets of his personality are not enough to ensure that the country's people get a fair deal from his period of office.
I'm 'trying to turn that into a debate on being a good president' because the thread is focusing too closely on intelligence and comptence. What about ethics? Desire to do the right thing? Huh?
Uhh, tobacco companies 'success' is due to their fact that their 'customers' are drug-slaves. They could at least have the decency to push a drug that has a nice high, comedown and doesn't kill people. How the hell is selling tobacco-and-associated-chemicals-in-a-death-stick legal?
Umm, because its proponents get to live like intergalactic royalty whilst everyone else lives in the gutter?

Uhh? you mean like the Canadian copyright levy on blank audio recording media ?
Involve the IT people in IT decisions? muahhaha. That'll never fly. Dude. Where are you from?

Nice. Pushing the boundaries of off-topicness...

No, I meant to say "same amount of surveillance and a nice cash-in-hand bonus for [y]our keepers."
Oh wait, because all the nice drugs are illegal.
